Particle Accelerators and Turkish Accelerator Center (TAC) Project

Accelerator technologyone of themostcriticaltechnology. nuclear reaction which can be used either nuclea rstructure or some other application is possible accelerating a particle. for this purposes there are about 30.000 accelerator some of them used in hospital for cancer treatment. apart from health sector accelerator are used in particle physics, nuclear physics, biotehnology and nanotechnology, genetic, material science, industry, metrology, environment chemistry, pharmacology, mine energy, defence education communication etc research and applications. in turkey even there are some center in hospital to be used in treatment for research there is no center. turkish accelerator center will play an important role for this purposes. in this study basic parameters and application fields of accelerator will be given and turkish accelerator center will be detailed.
